Still, I'd argue in an expat kinda way that there's a good spirit in the England. Half asleep, perhaps, but there nonetheless.<br /><br />If I'm wrong? Well, you'll have to fight a guerrilla action (I'm sure you're more than qualified...) and my mind goes to the Reconquista. By no means a doomed enterprise, albeit centuries long. Think, Cordoba Cathedral's not longer a mosque, at least for now.<br /><br />Likewise, who would've thought the Soviets would collapse so dramatically? But they did. We mustn't lose hope.<br /><br />LSPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08120630078039958644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407817413258733695.post-51827101087719509292020-08-17T16:05:39.145-07:002020-08-17T16:05:39.145-07:00RHT, do you remember the book "I'm OK, Yo...RHT, do you remember the book "I'm OK, You're Not So Hot"?

But regardless, his early accounts of being governed/guided by a "higher power" speak volumes, to say nothing of the deeds themselves.LSPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08120630078039958644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407817413258733695.post-50863217420316962602020-08-16T19:55:21.829-07:002020-08-16T19:55:21.829-07:00Having to have (professionally) crossed over into ...Having to have (professionally) crossed over into the old USSR most people have no real comprehension of just how utterly, banally evil it was.<br /><br />I don’t think they were all Satanists though. From personal contact with some ‘true believers’ they didn’t actually believe in anything … but themselves.<br /><br />“When men choose not to believe in God, they do not thereafter believe in nothing, they then become capable of believing in anything.” <br /><br />- G.K. Chesterton <br /><br /><br />“Individuals aren't naturally paid-up members of the human race, except biologically. They need to be bounced around by the Brownian motion of society, which is a mechanism by which human beings constantly remind one another that they are...well...human beings.” <br /><br />― Terry Pratchett<br /><br /><br />“It was said later that he came under bad influences at this stage. But the secret of the history of Edward d’Eath was that he came under no outside influences at all…he just came under the influence of himself…”<br /><br />- Terry Pratchett<br /><br /><br />They were, definitively, all nihilists. Marxism, I believe, is nothing more than institutionalised sociopathy. They did what they did because they never believed in anything that would ever make them question why not. The ‘State is God’ was just a means to excuse the naked power grab they desired, and any behaviour they chose to enact.<br /><br />Their utter lack of faith, of belief in anything may not make them ‘officially’ satanists, but I can guarantee come the time … he knew his own.<br /><br />The current nihilism of the ‘everythings relative’ progressives, the replacement of God with gaia and government, and the refusal to ever engage with (or even to allow to exist) anyone who disagrees is, as Ed says, the latest battle in the spiritual war we’re in.<br /><br />(islam and marxism? The first a political movement masquerading as a religion, the second a religion masquerading as a political movement. Both ruled by totalitarian sociopaths as a means to furthering their own wants/wishes/excesses)<br /><br />Hey, at least you there have sufficient numbers and faith to still fight.

It has to do with the whole "everyone gets a trophy", "you're OK, I'm OK" Dr. Spock crap.<br /><br />The implication being that you are just fine the way you are. You are not flawed. You are perfect. And if you are perfect, what need do you have of God?<br /><br />We are all His creation. He loves us as we are, and his forgiveness is there for the asking. He also expects us to do better.RHT447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407817413258733695.post-62172011613295366662020-08-13T17:59:31.150-07:002020-08-13T17:59:31.150-07:00In college I read part of "The Mind of Adolph...In college I read part of "The Mind of Adolph Hitler."

Wow, "the Devil like a roaring lion..." Which side of the combat will the US fall on?
